CMS for school website

What CMS would you recommend for a school website? I will be changing the current website from static & PHP to depend on a CMS since I am leaving and they want an easy way to update the site. So far I've looked into SubDreamer and Expression Engine, but wanted to ask around before I purchased, as I've never used any CMS other than the Open Source ones and I want something a little more secure. Mostly I am looking for one that has a calendar (or plugin), as well as the ability to assign different sections to different people as needed. I would prefer the CMS to be in PHP rather than ASP or any other language.

Any suggestions?

Well, what exactly are they trying to do?

Do they only need a calendar with a cms, or what? :-)

Take a look at wordpress (www.wordpress.org) it might not come with all the features you need but there are tons of plugins around to make it do just what you want.

I am a web-designer at a secondary school in the UK, and I am moving the current school website away from static html coded files to a new system based on wordpress, it is so powerful...

http://www.sirbernardlovell.s-gloucs.sch.uk/v3/ is the new website, take a look to see if its what you are looking for

hi,

u can use joomla! from joomla.org
joomla have so many features and extensions (called as component, module, mambot) including blog, i'm sure it will answer your need.

the most i like about joomla now, is that joomla has auto exchange link module, so i just install this module and get back links from thousand sites.

cheers,
